Pasquale Petrera “Fatalone” 2004 Gioia del Colle “Teres” Murgia Primativo (Apulia) – The misspelled grape is on the label, though I don’t know the reason. Soft and fresh, with fluffy pink strawberry fruit. All fun, very soft, but good acidity makes it light and quaffable. (2/07)

Pasquale Petrera “Fatalone” 2005 Gioia del Colle Bianco “Spinomarino” Murgia Greco (Apulia) – White ash, intense and exotic, showing melon, lilies, and dandelions. Very complex and perfumed. Fairly long. Slightly sweet? It doesn’t detract; this is a really impressive wine. (2/07)
